known issues:
some menu entries get lost - similar to lxde and other wm in various puplets - this is AFAIK due to non-standard menu entries
I had issues with getting folders on the desktop - programs went fine however

Do you have a good QT filer to go with it?
Why do you particularly want a QT wm?
To get rid of GTK we would need at least a word processor, spreadsheets, drawing program(s) and CD/DVD burner, but it seems to me that there aren't good QT-only options for some of these things - they tend to require KDE _________________DEATH TO SPREADSHEETS

Variety is the spice of life, besides I like the speed, flexibility and portability of QT - I am looking at getting something for each category from qt-apps. There are many programs that can compile against QT vs GTK such as vlc, webkit and others that are IMHO best in class for speed & size._________________Web Programming - Pet Packaging 100 & 101

Yes its a nice idea in theory, however so many core puppy programs are based on gtkdialog that it would be very difficult to go completely QT. I don't know of any drop-in replacement for gtkdialog... that would eliminate most of the wizards and several other programs that start with p. The wizards could mostly be converted to bash+xdialog, but we are talking about a lot of time for a lesser quality program... not something I would want to do. Perhaps the 2 wm style approach in 4.2 is a more realistic goal.

Nah - if we had QT we might as well use VLC, which is now QT and has:
1. A better interface (I think)
2. Better DVD support
3. Better VCD support
4. Better support for various other things _________________DEATH TO SPREADSHEETS

And a webkit browser that works with flash out of the box (and less than half a MB pet) needs QT{webkit,network,xml,gui} libs_________________Web Programming - Pet Packaging 100 & 101Last edited by technosaurus on Sun 09 Aug 2009, 00:44; edited 1 time in total
